    Author: Gribova OV, Musabaeva LI, Choinzonov EL, Novikov VA, Lisin VA.
    Journal: Vopr Onkol; 2015; 61(1):149-53. PubMed ID: 26016163.
    Abstract:
    The article presents issues of the application of neutron therapy in the combined and radiation therapy for head and neck tumors. There were developed methods of neutron and neutron-photon therapy in pre- and postoperative periods as well as in stand-alone option in unresectable tumors. The data obtained clearly demonstrate the superiority of new ways over standard methods of treatment. Neutron therapy is satisfactorily tolerated and allows improving the results of combined and radiation therapy patients with malignant tumors of the head and neck.
